M3 LEE
This is my take on the M3 LEE.
The kit is from TAMIYA and it comes together very well. That said, I’m not too happy with the result. It might be the wrong weathering or color as it did not come out as good as I hoped it would.
Any ideas?
Just arrived on my front porch

Outpost in Libya, fall 1941
So I ended up building a diorama for my Sd.Kfz. 222 Leichter Panzerspähwagen but it needed something more than just the 222.
As I already had the FLAK 37 anti-aircraft gun on my shelf, I decided to use that as it had some nice figures as [...]

Hi all,
This is Tamiya 90's offering of the early Tiger. It was a quick build that I wanted to try some new stuff on. This is my first very faded white wash, and I am happy with the results.
